File source is not properly indicated: File:Coogler frontis.png

This media may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Coogler frontis.png, is missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which is needed to verify its copyright status. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the content yourself, enter {{Own}} as the source. If you did not add a licensing template, you must add one. You may use, for example, {{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} or {{Cc-zero}} to release certain rights to your work. If someone else created the content, or if it is based on someone else's work, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Warning: Wikimedia Commons takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!

Uploading vector replacement

I am trying to replace File:Letters Sk in Fraktur.png with an identical SVG. I am new to this, and my upload of what I think is a valid SVG file has not changed anything, and the uploader insisted on keeping the PNG extension. I am baffled. — Alarob (talk) 22:06, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

I see how my first attempt at an SVG failed to produce a vector image. I fixed that, but I still don't see how to replace the PNG with my SVG. I can see that people do it all the time. I just can't reproduce it. — Alarob (talk) 22:17, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

I have now uploaded the vector image as File:Fraktur letters Sk.svg. I suppose I'll go to a Help page and ask for the PNG to be removed. — Alarob (talk) 16:33, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

I removed the {{helpme}} after posting a request here. — Alarob (talk) 16:59, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Dear Wikimedian,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2022 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the seventeenth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.

Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.

For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the two most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just three images to become the Picture of the Year.
